Huia Ridge Track

Tramping track

From Piha Road, opposite the Cowan Track, Huia Ridge Track follows the Huia watershed fenceline to Lone Kauri Road. The track re-enters bush and follows undulating ridge around the upper Huia watershed before swinging right along the ridge between the Karamatura and Pararaha headwaters. The track then crosses a boardwalk and a small tributary of each valley before reaching Karamatura Forks.

What to expect

Have structures in permanent wet areas but waterways will not generally be bridged.

Tramping tracks may also have limited track information, and steep grades.

Security

Theft from vehicles is not common but unfortunately can happen.
You should take the same reasonable precautions you take when parking at other locations and remember to lock your vehicle and take your valuables with you.
